[sophie_1003]

No problem tink, when's it due in? 2500 words seems like a dream compared to my dissertation that I'm meant to be working on!

[starone]

2,500 words! More like a small book than an essay.

[supersuezy24]

Sang a lot of their new stuff, mark looked great x

Tinks, have you considered OpenOffice? It's (almost) entirely compatible with Microsoft Office, but is completely free: http://www.openoffice.org/

A 'word' for essay writing purposes usually consists of 4 characters, so if you are able to count the number of letters and divide by 4 it should give you a good approximation.

[sophie_1003]

lol Mike!

[tinkerbell23]

friday soph!! i have just went over my 2500....i have another 3000 due in a few weels grrrrrrrr that will be hopefully my final huge essay- aslong as i have no resits!!!!

starbuck- your telling me!! lol!! my backs sore sitting typing!! haha done now i think- i let my uni make look over it aswell he gives me the thumbs up- or down as it may be!

its on professional ethical and legal aspects of wether this prentend elderly patient should be told of her cancer diagnosis at the request of her daughter that she shouldnt!! i argued that she should!

[sophie_1003]

Ah you've got loads of time yet then lol! I've got 7500 words due in (dissertation) on 9th May, done 2000ish so far

[supersuezy24]

Lol tinker xx How's Pablo??xxx <3

[MarkRae]

Tinks, I'm sure OpenOffice will provide everything you require. It has equivalent "programmes" to Microsoft Word (Writer), Excel (Calc), PowerPoint (Impress) and Access (Base). On the assumption that you're a "regular" user of Microsoft Office (and I really don't mean anything disparaging by that!) then I'm sure OpenOffice will meet all your requirements and more...

[tinkerbell23]

well i left this current essay a bit later than i should have- and this is a literature review this next one. and a gap proposal...grrrr so i should really have started now! so har getting to the swing of it isnt it- but hey, think of the outcome they say lol!

lol mike!!! i dont think i have the time haha

suez- he is passed out ontop of a pile of clean washing at the end of my bed!! haahah hes SO nosey he kept running to the window today, i was trying to concentrate and i was losing patience....poor pablo haha i took him to my wrk for 5mins to say hiya to my workmate so plenty cuddles!!! xx

[supersuezy24]

He is gorgeous, just wanna cuddle him, proper little character x

[mike11111]

I wasn't being entirely funny; I'm sure I can recall a function somewhere in Microsoft Word which shows the number of characters typed so dividing that by 4 should give you a good idea of the word length.

[tinkerbell23]

thks mike! but im usin crappy notepad! cant even underline lol x
